展会报告(Show Reports):
opti inspired as an industry highlight right at the start of the year and put the ophthalmic optics family in the mood for successful cooperation and order growth in 2023. With an increase in visitors of 19.2% compared to the previous year, opti is in an upbeat spirit together with the entire optics & design industry. This year, around 15,500 visitors from 67 countries gathered in Munich to take advantage of the diverse range of innovative formats for knowledge, sales, and exchange in a positive atmosphere. A total of 307 exhibitors from 28 countries exhibited at opti 2023. "opti is back and on course for success! Three inspiring trade show days with visitors and exhibitors from all over the world have come to an end. I would like to explicitly thank everyone who believed in opti with us and made the success possible! Seeing the industry united again in such a great atmosphere was my highlight," says Klaus Plaschka, Managing Director of GHM Gesellschaft für Handwerksmessen mbH.
The new hall constellation created a special atmosphere. Thomas Truckenbrod's (President of the Central Association of Opticians and Optometrists) personal conclusion: "The trade show is alive. And how! For me, opti was a successful relaunch of an essential trade show for the optical industry in Munich. The compact number of halls, which I felt were well attended, contributed to a pleasant trade show feeling. Despite all the circumstances, the consistently positive mood gives us hope for a commercially successful year."
An impression that is confirmed throughout. Karsten Möhrer, Eyewear Sales Director at Eschenbach Optik: "The sales per person that our sales force was able to achieve at opti 2023 is very satisfactory. Thanks to our adapted stand concept, we managed to optimally absorb the visitor frequency in Munich. ESCHENBACH's participation at opti 2023 was thus a success!"
Exhibitors draw an overall positive balance on visitor and order volume. "opti 2023? Fantastic! Awesome! The trade fair was outstandingly successful for us. As Hecht Kontaktlinsen, we agreed from the start that we would like to be present again in January. Whether customers, industry partners, universities, or new market players – opti is the optimal and most important platform for us to maintain personal contacts. We are even more pleased that the response was so phenomenal!", sums up Mario Rehnert, Head of Marketing at Hecht Kontaktlinsen GmbH.
Impulse lectures followed by discussions in the SUSTAINABILITY HUB and MYOPIA HUB offered interested visitors the opportunity to learn about trends, research methods and technologies as well as to discuss individual questions and challenges within a group. Exhibitor tours, organized by epitop GmbH and other exhibitors, addressed various key topics in ophthalmic optics, for example "Smart imaging in ophthalmic screening". Thus, opti gave important impulses to the market. In particular, the opti TREND "Myopia Management" was seen by 78% of visitors as important for their everyday professional lives, and regarding the MYOPIA HUB, more than three-quarters of respondents gave opti top marks.
The social media sessions were also popular, with Sarah Schleicher, German optician and eyewear blogger (19,000 Instagram followers) and French optician Anne-Sophie Lapetite (100,000 Instagram fans) from AnSoStyle answering questions.
A trade show that makes customers want more: 83% of visitors are already looking forward to the next opti. For most opticians, the date in Munich is already fixed in their calendars. opti 2024 will take place in Munich from January 12 to 14, 2024.
